It seems that yesterday, Rainbow Six Siege meant to tease a new character using a brief gif on its German Twitter account. Then it went a step further and revealed an entire trailer on Facebook. That video was quickly taken down, but not before we got a good look at the latest operator.
As reported by PCGamesN, Siege’s third season will introduce Clash, an officer from the London Metropolitan Police. Described as “an expert on mob behaviour and snatch-squad tactics,” Clash carries a shield that unfolds to block her front and unleashes electricity in a forward arc.
There are many details we still don’t know: Can Clash move when her shield is deployed, or is she immobile? Is the shield destructible? Right now, all we can do is speculate, but Grim Sky expected to arrive by September, we won’t have long to wait.
Clash won’t be alone however. Grim Sky will also debut an American attacker who specializes in “tactical operations”. We can safely assume a trailer for his character is on the way as well.
Update
Trailer released
Meet Clash, the first Defender with a shield.
Born and raised in England, she’s a tough officer who served with the Territorial Support Group, holding the front line during the 2011 London Riots. She earned her spot with the Specialist Firearms Command (SCO19), making herself known within London’s Metropolitan Police Services (MPS).
She’s an expert at devising crowd-control strategies and she even acquired special permission to attend Gold Command meetings. She later made Detective Constable. Her experience, service record and persistence in her line of work got her noticed by Rainbow Six.
Twitch and Mira combined their engineering backgrounds, leading an R&D project to create the CCE Shield (Crowd Control Electro Shield). Clash is the perfect Operator to handle this new gadget and weapon because she understands mob behavior and she pioneered snatch squad tactics, not to mention her experience as a riot officer. She knows exactly when and where to deploy this shield to deny entry and slow down her opponents. Not only that, Clash has the backbone to stand her ground and a cooperative mindset to set herself up for assists. She shows no mercy and she has zero-tolerance for nonsense.
Despite her new title as DC at the MPS, she knows she belongs on the front line. This new Defender joining Rainbow Six, she’s none other than Morowa “Clash” Evans.
